  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 3 tablespoons honey

  3. Nonstick pan (and spray if you want with 0 calorie spray)
  4. Add everything you mixed together into the pan
  5. Bake for 90minutes or until the granola is browned and crunchy (try and stir the granola while cooking every 15minutes)
  6. Remove and allow to cool
